From the recording Soft Animal
Soft Animal is an intimate and quietly powerful song that leans into vulnerability and a grounded kind of strength. Set within a spacious, cinematic soundscape shaped by lush orchestral strings, the track offers a quieter moment within Kwun’s wider body of work, one that stands among his most emotive songs to date.
Lyrics
Hello good morning
To the soft animal of your body
Come on feel your toes
And I can feel your nose
Together we’ll free the wisdom
And the love inside your soul
But first we’ll have a talk
To this nagging pain
My love understand that
You’ve got yourself wrong
And it’s not like you say
And you really are that strong
With the strength and connection
And courage and wisdom
And roots that run deep
To the core of the earth
My darling remember
As long as like
And it comes from your heart
Then you know it’s alright
And I’ll come to over and over
And over and over and over
And over and over again
As you go on journey
Be kind to yourself and take some rest
So come inside for now
And we can talk for a while
And if your heart beats a rhythm
That’s different to the rhythm
In your head
I’ll help you free your soul
From these shackles of doubt
The ultimate truth so you’ve read in the books
Is that we are all one and it’s not how it looks
But your heart still feels broken
In more than one place
And your skin is so raw
And there’s tears on your face
I’ll help you find heaven by touching the ground
And there’s nothing’s you’ve lost
With a world to be found
And I’ll come to you over and over
And over and over and over
And over again
My darling remember
As long as like
And it comes from your heart
Then you know it’s alright
Let the soft animal
Of your body reveal
All the pain then joy
And the love that you feel
